There's nothing wrong with being a fashion photographer, but it's a bit limited.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
A lot of fashion photographers will do the same sort of image for many years; it's easier to be successful if you do that.
Many people when I started didn't believe I was a good fashion photographer, and probably they still think that.
Truthfully, I don't really think of myself as a photographer. I don't have all the disciplines and knowledge of a person who's spent their life devoted to photography.
There's more to me than fashion. I just don't want to be seen as fashion.
I'm not really a fashion person.
When you're a fashion photographer, you must inspire a dream.
I didn't try and do fashion pictures. I tried to do portraits of girls wearing dresses.
Many people misunderstand me - I'm quite happy to be called a photographer. All of a sudden, the art world has caught up with photography, and they are trying to hijack us.
Just because you work in the fashion industry, it doesn't mean you live your life in fashion.
I never thought of myself as being limited to fashion. I'm a designer, and if you have a vision, you can apply that to anything.
